The Circus

Today was cloudy, windy, and it rained in the afternoon, so it wasn't a good pool day to say the least.  I was ok with that because I had a heat/sun rash that was pretty bad today and I wasn't going to be able to spend much time in the sun anyway.  So we went to The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art and Circus Museum in Sarasota.  It was so cool!  They had a full miniature model of the circus from the train, to the side shows, to the animals, to the big top circus tent.  It was amazing to see how much space the circus needed and what all went into it.  Now I want to go to the circus!! :) We also got to tour John & Mable Ringling's mansion, which was amazing as well.  It was definitely worth the trip and a good activity to do on a cloudy day.

We went to dinner in St. Armands Circle since it was our last night in Florida.  It was an amazing dinner and Jason decided to wow/gross us all out and ate some oysters.  Yuck!  With bill they brought us pineapple covered in chocolate.  I ate the chocolate off a piece and gave it to Braelyn. She LOVED it!  She got upset when we had to take it away from her when it was time to go.  Definitely her Mommy's kid with love for pineapple! :)
